Born and raised in the East Riding, save for degree studies in the big smoke. Unfortunately almost at the opposite end of the Tees-Exe line for the GWR!
Currently building up (hoarding) my fleet, and taking my first steps in scratch & kit building, via modifying RTR! The dream? A secondary GWR mainline in the winter/spring of 1946/7, with plenty of operating interest, and justification to run all classes of Swindon's finest!
Had a fantastic day riding behind the Flying Scotsman on the NYMR yesterday. Where else could you be pulled by a Gresley A3 pacific and banked by a Stanier Black 5 up a 1 in 49? Tremendous.
